Born 1968-01-08 · Kawaguchi, Saitama, Japan

Keiko Aoki (née Nakano; born January 8, 1968) is a Japanese retired professional wrestler and professional golfer, best known under the ring name Bull Nakano and for her tenures with All Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling (AJW). She held several championships for AJW, most notably a nearly three-year reign as WWWA World Single Champion, before being phased out by the company in the early 1990s due to their age-based personnel policies. She later became the first first World Women's Champion for Mexican promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) in 1992, and in 1994, signed with World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE). She won the WWF Women's Championship in a back-and-forth feud with Alundra Blayze, becoming the first Japanese wrestler recognized by the promotion to do so. After retiring from wrestling, Nakano began competing as a professional golfer, and in 2006, she joined a tour with the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA). She was inducted into the Wrestling Observer Newsletter Hall of Fame on 2001 and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2024.

Stardom Queen's Fest poster
NR

Stardom's events can almost always be split in half as their show structure is very predictable. Their undercard suffers due to the fact they have so many young wrestlers and they don't leave wrestlers off cards if they are healthy. So you're always going to get the rookie match and the big gaijin tag match, that's life in the Stardom World. But once you get past that, Stardom has some truly amazing wrestlers that would blow the roof off any building in the world if given the chance. Both title matches here delivered, not only in execution but they also left the stories open so no one will be left behind - the stories of Tam Nakano and Momo Watanabe will continue to grow. Whether you watch it on Stardom World or find the Samurai TV version, the second half is certainly worth tracking down, particularly the main event

The World Wrestling Peace Festival was a professional wrestling supercard event produced by Japanese professional wrestler Antonio Inoki, which took place on June 1, 1996 at the Los Angeles Sports Arena in Los Angeles, California. The event was organized by Inoki to promote world peace with an interpromotional event involving major promotions from around the world. Forty wrestlers from six countries ended up taking part in the event. Inoki's home promotion New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), as well as smaller independent groups, represented Japan, while World Championship Wrestling (WCW) and the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) took part on behalf of the United States. Both of Mexico's top promotions Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) and Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) participated in the event, which was considered unlikely by many in the industry given their own heated rivalry.
